Steam Coronavirus Sale Likelyhood?

The Torrent

Considering many places are giving sales and doing free stuff, likelihood of steam doing something?

 

I wanna buy a load of games to last through this lockdown but are hesitant at the moment hoping they may have a sale.

 

Whats the likelyhood you guys reckon? And when would they do it? Where are their hq for sales decisions located, as they will probably base it around the pandemic there?

 

Can they even organise a sale or is it up to developers???

 

Thanks

Most publishers already have sales on their games on steam, no need for Valve to prompt a mass sale.

 

Check other 3rd party sites like Fanatical or GMG for more sales

Coronavirus classics:

Left 4 dead series

Dead by daylight

Day Z

You get the idea...

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Just be patient. They all go on sale all the time. Spring sale should be coming up.

Hmm I'm not sure about that one. There are a lot of developer sales going on, but the Steam sales aren't on at this time.

RDRD2 being so new I doubt you see massive price drops. Unlike some other businesses, Valve isn't going to go under by sticking to their marketing plans.
